    Good for you, it must feel great that they came out just fine.

    Your trusted your gut and did what you thought was best.

    It must feel good hu?


    And I would like to add my 2 cents.

    Being a mom not a breeder though, being pregnant, giving birth, caring for eggs etc. Is stressful...who said it isnt and wasnt going to be? I wish when I got pregnant someone took my fetus, put her in a sterile environment and "raised her" so I could eat and rest the whole 9 months. You wanna talk about stress? Try throwing up 12 times a day for 9 months! Only to have to learn to nurse and take care of an infant on only 1/2 hour of sleep a day. She's 2 now and still I'm just as tired and stressed as the first day.

    But even after all that, it was worth it. And I would do it 100 more times with out thought...why? Because I'm a woman and thats what my body was created to do for me.

    I'm not saying a snake has any gradification after hatching her eggs herself or anything who knows. But wasnt she designed for this?

    Were all saying "its in the animals best interest to put her eggs in an incubater" why not give her the one natural thing we can, while we have her living in this "plastic nature" I know taking a dogs pups away after birth induces stree in them, I even had a cat jump the fence into my waiting rottweilers and pitbulls mouths to get her kittens I had rescued.

    I'm not saying snakes are like dogs or cats or people...but all the way across the board (excluding snakes in some peoples eyes) birth and taking care of there young is a process females do, and do better then any plastic box on most days.

    If her eggs were left then yeah, if you felt it was right to take them and incubate them, then go for it.

    But if a mother is holding onto her eggs and wanting to take her chances then why not let her know she is capable of this?

    Obviously she knows what she's doing.
    Birth is stressful end of story, stressful knwoing you could die from birth, your babies could die etc. etc.
    Its a chance nature has set us up to take.

    I believe everything happens for a reason. And Sapphire chose this way and it worked, she isnt breeding them for profit, so this way was best in her eyes. I could understand saying "do whats best for the snake and incubate the eggs" because while shes sitting on the eggs for 60 days, not eating or resting a breeder is losing money hu?

    So who is doing whats best for the snakes? Breeders are creating more snakes, when there are millions looking for good homes.....hmmmm. And Sapphire over here is letting her little mama...well be a mama.

    No one is wrong and no one is right, to each his own.
